Causes of a Burn Injury

Each year millions of people will suffer some type of a significant burn
injury and hundreds more die due to their injuries. Burn injuries have
very serious and long term consequences. They can leave a person’s
appearance disfigured, affect their psychological well-being, and cost
the injured tens of thousands of dollars in medical bills. Because of
this, determining the cause of the burn injury is important. Our skilled
Ridgefield burn injury lawyers can help determine if negligence is to blame.

Burn injuries can occur from the following:

Gas explosions

House fires and apartment fires resulting from someone’s negligence

Motor vehicle accidents

Defective appliances or smoke detectors

Electric accidents

Cooking accidents

Exploding furnaces, stores, boilers or other appliances

Chemical spills

Workplace accidents

Water heater malfunctions

Industrial accidents or electrocution

If our team of attorneys can prove that the injuries you sustained were
because your workplace was unsafe or there was negligence involved in
the explosion or fire you were burned in, we may be able to file a lawsuit
on your behalf.
